[edit]

It may be noteworthy that there is no scene in the book where heroin is being injected; I don't know much about addiction, but the novel makes it seem somewhat easy to quit taking heroin (albeit potentionally moving on to crack or cocaine) (clem 06:57, 12 August 2005 (UTC))[reply]

then again, this is 10 yers later.

trainspotting dealt with the characters quitting heroin, and at no point was it made to seem easy...

It states in the intro that the novel refers to Spud recieving his money. This is NOT the case. In Porno, Renton gives the money to Spud, who throws it away. 124.182.217.196 06:16, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No he gives it to second prize who throws it away, Spud got his sometime before the start of Porno

the novel talks about how spud is still addicted to heroin and still does it.

I think it's worth mentioning that, as the novel goes along, Simon slowly loses his proper English narration, and starts to slip back into Scottish brogue. He never falls into it like Begbie and Spud, but he's definitely back in his old Sick Boy persona by the end of the book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.7.246.51 (talk) 18:38, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

'Juice' Terry Lawson should be listed as one of the main characters as he is one of the mainstays of the film production team.Silver Barnet (talk) 17:49, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

[edit]

There's not much about the plot really. Loads happens in Part Three but there's only one sentence on it here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.133.213.141 (talk) 12:28, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dianne and Rents

[edit]

They end up together so she can't have lost all her interest in him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.185.188.25 (talk) 14:04, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
